    eBay Authenticity Guarantee for Trainers/Sneakers is Flawed

    I've just been burnt by the authenticity program, having recently purchased a pair of Jordan 1 trainers back in September.

     

    The trainers went through the authenticity program and arrived fairly quickly. Within two months I made the decision to re-sell them, they didn't feel comfortable, so I re-sold them on eBay and they went through the authenticity program to the buyer.

     

    They failed.

     

    No explanation, just an automatic return case and a buyer refund. Ironically, I even sent them for authentication using the same box and packed in the confirmation documents that they originally sent me!

    Thanks eBay, great service. ðŸ™ƒ

    What condition did you use on YOUR listing?

    They could have failed for condition, not authenticity, if something in your listing description was off or lacking compared to physical product.
